If Miami Beach can be thought of as a jewelry box for distinctive living, then the four Sunset Islands are the shining gems in the top drawer. Reaching out into Biscayne Bay just north of the Venetian Causeway, the exclusive Sunset Islands offer four chances to invest in upscale waterway living with easy access to the best in South Beach nightlife and fine dining, and proximity to the many venues and attractions in Miami and beyond. Estate homes on waterfront property with fantastic bay and city views are made even more desirable with unfettered, spectacular sunsets on the water. Unique to Sunset Islands are its designated historic bridges (#1, 2 and 4) which are the sole surviving original Mediterranean-themed public works engineering structures in the City of Miami Beach and also the only remaining bridges of their kind in South Florida.
The islands are quiet enclaves away from busier neighborhoods nearby and not subject to through traffic (the middle two islands are not connected) so a restful pace is assured. Most properties are located on the water with generous frontage and dock space for water craft and each island hosts only a few dozen stately homes. With nothing but the shimmering waters of Biscayne Bay between Sunset Islands’ homes and the mainland, the orange and pink sky frames the oncoming evening featuring a million twinkling lights from the Miami skyline. Only a select few families ever have the opportunity to enjoy such a spectacular setting and many of them live on Sunset Islands.
